Make a Rope Dog Toy: 6 StepsIntroduction: Make a Rope Dog ToyOur dog Dodger will rip apart normal dog toys in about 15 minutes. "Indestructable toys" t)
I learned how to make a monkey fist knot at a juggling festival a few years ago -- just for fun I made Dodger a toy out of rope that managed to keep him busy for at least a few days...
Step 1: MaterialsRope: At least 10.5 feet of 3/8" diamond braid rope -- about 4.5' for the monkey fist knot and 3 feet (X2) for the braid on each end. It's better to start with a much longer piece of rope, tie/position the monkey fist knot, and then trim off the long side. Also, forming the monkey first takes more rope (~6'), which is then tightened down to 4.5'. Scissors or a sharp knife to cut the rope (Be carefull!)Lighter to melt the rope ends, to prevent fraying.Step 2: Monkey First KnotA monkey fist knot is basically three (or more) turns of rope,
three more turns around the first three, and a final set of three more turns locking them all together. Two good sites (with pictures) of how to make a monkey first knot are: and Start about 10 feet from the end of the rope -- this'll give you about 6' for forming the knot + 3' for the end braid + 1' for tightening...The initial knot has to be pretty loose, otherwise you'll never be able to feed the last three loops through the knot.To tighten the knot, start with the rope at one end of the knot. Almost as if you were trying to untie the knot, push/pull the rope into the knot, creating a loop. Following the path of the rope, push/pull the loop through the entire knot, pulling the loops tighter as you go.Cut/trim the rope as needed to end up with a monkey-fist knot in the middle of two 3' ends of rope.Step 3: Cleaning Up the Rope EndsI like to remove some of the rope core before fusing the ends of the rope.
Pull the braided covering back from the end, exposing the core.
Cut off an inch or so of the core.
Pull the braided covering back over the end of the core.
Use the lighter to fuse the covering together.Step 4: Braid Knot the Rope EndsYou could stop here, but making a braid knot out of each end of the rope makes a better/thicker handle for the toy. A braid knot is a way of braiding a single rope. See Loop one end around twice to form the three strands you'll be braiding (see the picture).Start braiding the three strands near the monkey first knot. As you braid, the other end of the rope will become tangled -- after a few plaits, stop to untangle the ends, then continue braiding.Step 5: Done!Make a braid knot on the other end of the rope, and you're done!Step 6: Play!About This Instructable 72More by mik3:Add instructable to:Related& “An anxious mother wa...”习题详情

An anxious mother watched as rescuers freed her baby from a muddy well. After being pulled from the well，the baby joyfully ran to its mom as the rescuers took a break. It was a difficult and potentially dangerous rescue: the baby was an 8-month-old elephant, and at first its mother thought the humans were trying to harm it. The baby elephant fell into the five-foot-deep well near Kenya's Amboseli National Park. Local people had dug the well for water. It took 30 minutes to remove the trapped elephant. While Vicki Fishlock of the Amboseli Trust for Elephants made a loud shout to frighten the mother away, two men struggled to get a rope around the baby elephant. Once the rope was in place, Fishlock used her jeep to pull the baby out. Fishlock recognized Zombe, the mother of the trapped baby elephant，from a mark on her ear. She believes that in the end Zombe realized the humans were trying to help. “Rescues where the elephant’s family members are around are always stressful, and I'm always happy when everyone is safe,” Fishlock said.“The reunions (团聚) always bring tears to my eyes. The depth of their love for each other is one of the things that make elephants so unusual.”The very next day, another baby elephant fell into the same well. The 3-month-old's family had been driven away from the area by local people. Once it had been rescued, the Amboseli Trust had to send it to an elephant orphanage (孤儿院) in Nairobi, Kenya's capital city.The rescues showed the plight of elephants across Africa. Elephants are fighting to survive, as conflicts between the animals and humans are increasing. Thousands of elephants are also being killed for their tusks. The tusks are sold in Asia, where ivory trinkets are in high demand.The Amboseli Trust has been studying elephants and trying to help them since 1972. Fishlock said, “We hope this rescue persuades people that elephants are special and deserve to be protected and treasured.”【小题1】We can learn from the text that &&&&.A．Fishlock had seen the baby elephant beforeB．The mother elephant was a great help to rescuersC．the well was dug by local people to trap elephantsD．the mother elephant was unfriendly at first to the rescuers【小题2】What causes Fishlock to think that elephants are special? A．Their trust in humans. B．The deep love between them. C．Their great ability to survive. D．The good communication between them.【小题3】What did the two baby elephants have in common?

　　Living one's life is really like driving on a highway. First, to make a good driving,the driver must carefully examine the
of his car, just as he cares for his health for a good life. Once he enters into the highway, he must
certain rules for his own safety. It also can be said that he must obey certain rules of society when living as a decent (体面 的)adult. For example, on the highway, he is required to keep a constant speed which can be compared with his
activities through his life. Neither driving nor living must be taken at too high a speed or at too slow a speed. If he drives too

to every direction of his car. It is sometimes dangerous to change the way of life unless he can be sure of completion by doing so. He
not make any unnecessary changing of lanes which gives him only danger. Finally,he must discover where he is now by recog-nizing some
appearing now and then. If he takes the wrong way, he must return to the right as
as he can. But he may thus lose time and energy both on the road and in life. On the whole, driving on a high-way and living one's life are both hard work. But if he is careful and serious enough,

A traveler was staying in an Egyptian village. One day, she held up her camera to take pictures of the children. Suddenly the young ones began to shout at her. The traveler's face turned red and she apologized to the head for what she was doing, and told him she had forgotten that people in some places believed a person would lose his soul(灵魂) if his picture was taken. She explained to him the operation of a camera for a long time. Several times the head tried to say something, but he couldn't. When she believed that the head didn't fear any longer, the traveler then let him speak. With a smile, he said, &The children were trying to tell you that you forgot to take off the lens(镜头) cap!&

Some mammals migrate（迁徒）. One of these is the caribou（驯鹿）. They travel to the tundra（苔原）every summer to eat the rich grasses that grow there. When the weather becomes cooler, they migrate to the warmer forests and spend the winter there. Another mammal that migrates is the humpback whale. They spend the winter in Hawaii, and the summer in the Arctic（北极的）waters. They travel to the Arctic to eat millions of small shrimp（虾）. Anther habit that some animals have to survive the cold winter is called hibernation. Animals that hibernate, rest or sleep during the winter. While they are hibernating, their bodies use up the fat layer that they have put on by eating large amounts of food during the summer. Some animals that hibernate in the Arctic are small animals called lemmings（旅鼠）, squirrels（松鼠）and bears. There are two habit adaptations that animals in the Arctic have all year round. These are called herding and pack life. Caribou are example of animals that live in herds. A herd is a group of animals that lives together for most, or all of their lives. A herd of caribou can have a thousand or more animals in it. They live in herds for protection. It is easier for caribou to protect themselves when they are together than it is when they are alone. This is because the meat-eaters hunt in packs. A pack is a small group of animals that lives together. It is usually controlled by a head male and a female. All the members of the pack must obey them. Packs have a very definite social structure. Each animal in a pack has a different position, or importance. Animals in a pack are usually meat-eaters. They live together for protection and hunting purposes. According to the first paragraph, the humpback whale&&&&&&&& . A. travels to the Arctic for shrimp in summer B. spends the winter in the Arctic C. lives in Hawaii in summer D. has the same living habits as the caribou What kind of animal doesn’t hibernate in the Arctic? A. The caribou.&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&& B. The bear.&&&&&&&&&& C. The squirrel.&&&&&&&&&&&& D. The lemming.
Caribou live in herds in order to&&&&&&&& . A. use up their fat layer&&&&&&& B. find food&&& &&& C. protect themselves&&&& D. hunt in packs
What do we know about pack life according to the last paragraph? A. Animals in pack are usually grain-eaters. B. All animals are in an equal position in a pack. C. It is either controlled by a head mate or by a female. D. Each animal has its own different role in a pack.
Why are so many people so afraid of failure? Quite simply because no one tells us how to fail so that failure becomes an experience that will lead to growth. We forget that failure is part of the human condition and that every person has the right to fail.? Most parents work hard at either preventing failure or protecting their children from the knowledge that they have failed. One way is to lower standards. A mother describes her child's hurriedly-made table as “perfect”!Even though it couldn't stand on uneven (not same in height) legs. Another way is to shift blame. If John fails in science, his teacher is unfair or stupid.? The trouble with failure—prevention methods is that they leave a child unequipped for life in the real world. The young need to learn that no one can be best at everything, no one can win all the time—and that it's possible to enjoy a game even when you don't win. A child who's not invited to a birthday party, who doesn't make the honor roll or the baseball team feels terrible, of course. But parents should not offer a quick comfort prize or say “It doesn't matter”,because it does. The young should be allowed to experience disappointment and be helped to master it. Failure is never pleasurable. It hurts grown-ups and children exactly alike. But it can make a positive contribution to your life once you learn to use it. Step one is to ask “Why did I fail?”. Control the natural impulse(冲动) to blame someone else. Ask yourself what you did wrong, how you can improve. If someone else can help, don't be shy about asking them.? This passage mainly tells us about _______.? A. the reasons why people fail
B. how to fail? C. the ways to prevent failures D. the importance of facing failures? When the writer says “every person has the right to fail”, he means to say _______. A. the world is full of failures 　　　　　　&
B. no one is perfect? C. failures are quite common in our lives　　　　　 D. no one can grow up mentally without failures? By “protecting their children from the knowledge that they have failed”, the writer means that most parents try their best _______.? A. to let their children know that they won't fail? B. not to teach their children about knowledge of failure? C. to provide their children for the knowledge against failure? D. to keep their children from realizing that they failed? According to the writer, _______. A. parents should tell their children to think nothing of not being chosen into a football team? B. children should be encouraged to get rid of disappointment all by themselves C. parents should judge what their children have done as it is? D. children should learn to enjoy a game that they won't win??
